Different site, but I found it amusing enough to mention. From Snopes’ What’s New section:

**Tsunami Prediction** (15 April 2009)  
E-rumor claims a solar eclipse will touch off an earthquake and a devastating tsunami on 22 July 2009.

**The Death of Common Sense** (14 April 2009)  
Obituary laments the passing of common sense.

**So, my two-year-old is reading . . .

Hold it - there was a novelization to that movie?

“Jules had had enough. The time had come to put an end to this horror. In a rage, he stood up and declared ‘I’m SICK of these MOTHER…’”

Just my opinion, but I’d start the kid of with something a bit lighter, say Dr. Suess.

Hey; it’s just a free sex toy to help enjoy all the porn that Google helps you find. They know their customers.

\*\*Vulcan insults  
Foreign humor you just don’t get \*\*

VERY foreign.  
\*\*Why are some right wing leaders and spokespeople toying with the idea of civil war?

So, someone threatens their illegal downloading and it’s war, eh ?
